I liked the episode a lot too. The story chosen (kidnapping poor children for peddling of vital organs) was appropriate and shown quite realistically. Although the investigation was pretty straightforward, I think the quality of the episode was raised by the good direction by Nandu Kale and the fantastic (I mean,
FANTASTIC! 😎 ) performance by our team, especially Aditya sir! The locations they shot in (the railway platform/tracks and the few scenes in the slum area) were especially instrumental in setting the atmosphere for the episode, kudos to the unit for this one.
I think this one was a real treat for fans of Aditya sir. He was totally in his element as mentioned by visrom and, boy, what an amazing performance. The scene where he acts as a drunkard and lays waste to the doctor's operating room was hilarious and really brilliant - he's always been amazing in these scenes and this one is no exception. I'm glad to see the good amount of Abhi-Daya scenes implemented yesterday, such as when Daya sir leaves him at his home . Also loved their scenes with the khabri (idliwallah)... that guy did a great job BTW. The final flashback scene with Abhijeet as a villain seemed terrific as well. Now it's up to the writers to live up to this and create an apt story for the rest of the series.
ACP sir was great as always, especially in the final scenes where they rescue the children, though he had comparatively less screen time. Freddy, Sachin and Kajal did well in whatever scenes they were, too. I missed Vivek, though. The forensic scenes were quite brief but I think they were aptly handled. The supporting cast was good, though they kinda gave away the ending in a way because the fella playing Prabhat is a quite common villain in CID. 😆
I'm not sure how they're gonna progress with the story, but for once I hope they plan it well instead of making things up as they go like AC. It was definitely a good start though and bodes well for the rest of the series. At least, I hope so!
